The purpose of this paper is to describe our arthroscopic CC ligament augmentation technique in treating type III and V acute AC joint dislocations and to report the early clinical and radiological results. Methods: From 2010 to 2011, twelve patients suffering from acute type III or V AC joint dislocations were arthroscopically treated in our department, by CC ligament augmentation after AC joint reduction. The post-operative outcomes were assessed through physical examination, radiographic examination and the Constant-Murley Shoulder Score. Results: All patients post-operatively experienced anatomical reduction in their AC joint dislocation. No intraoperative complications occurred. At a mean follow-up at 24months (ranging from 18 to 32months), the mean Constant-Murley Shoulder Score significantly improved from 24.3 pre-operatively to 91.1 post-operatively. No neurovascular complications or secondary degenerative changes of the AC joint were detected in any of the patients. In one case, a second dislocation occurred 1month post-operation because the patient had had another traumatic injury. This patient accepted a revision operation, but his AC joint eventually fixated into a subluxated position after his second injury. Conclusion: Based on the resultant successful repair in all cases, the arthroscopic CC ligament augmentation method has thus far proven to be a safe and reliable technique for treatment of acute type III or V AC joint dislocation. Clinical relevance: The arthroscopic CC ligament augmentation with a flip button/polyethylene belt repair is an efficient method to treat acute type III and V AC joint dislocations which should be popularized.
